Chapter 212: The Three Heroes of Gou Chen
Many people who failed in the strongest ancient trial road did not return to their homeland, but chose to stay and recuperate here. Eventually, after countless years, they had become a large group of indigenous people.

Not only are there ancient cities like the Ancient Trial Road of the Human Race, but many people have even opened up some pure lands on nearby ancient stars, which have become new sources of life.

Normally this city would be even more prosperous, but as if to make way for people like Chai Xin, the vicious vendors did not set up their stalls.

Even the children who were playing were quickly taken back home by their families.

"You'd better never leave the city, otherwise I will kill you in ten thousand ways. The dangers of this ancient human trial road are beyond the imagination of people like you."

The young man in golden armor came behind Chai Xin again at some point and spoke coldly to him.

Chai Xin looked back and immediately saw that the other party was staring at him with an angry and murderous look.

This guy is not stupid. He knows he can't win but still wants to provoke him. It's obvious that he did it on purpose. He doesn't have the confidence to defeat Chai Xin, and he's worried that this will be a big enemy in the future, so he wants to provoke him.

If Shiba Xin couldn't control his anger and attacked him, coupled with the previous conflict with the city guards, it would give the guards a real excuse to take action.

Even though Chai Xin is powerful and can suppress those guards, there are still many more powerful high-level officials in the first level of the human race, such as the city lord, who will never allow a trial-taker to mess around in the city.

This is a scheme of killing someone with a borrowed knife, which is extremely cruel.

There were some other people who came in with them, and they felt the strong hostility between the two, and they all looked over with anticipation on their faces.

Everyone on this road is a competitor to each other.

Chai Xin's strength had been revealed before, and he was definitely a formidable enemy, and the young man in golden armor was not weak either. These people were eager for Chai Xin to make a move quickly, and then both of them would break the rules and be captured by the City Lord's Mansion.

However, they were destined to be disappointed.

"moron."

Chai Xin said this not only to the young man in golden armor, but also to those guys around him who were standing by and watching with ill intentions.

"I think there will be relevant rules in the city to deal with the malicious provocations of certain people, right? It's best for everyone to be honest, otherwise you won't be able to leave the city alive."

"伱!"

The young man in golden armor was extremely angry, but he really didn't dare to provoke again because there were indeed relevant regulations in the city.

Although violence is prohibited in the city, it does not mean that conflicts will never occur.

In this case, there must be relevant countermeasures, such as punishing those who repeatedly provoke others and directly expelling them from the city.

He was alone at the moment, and knew clearly that he was no match for Chai Xin. If he continued to provoke him, and if the situation got out of hand and he was driven out of the city, the other party would definitely leave the city without hesitation and eliminate him directly.

"You wait!"

The young man in golden armor uttered these words, and then his figure flashed and quickly disappeared at the end of the long street.

Of course, the others felt that Chai Xin's words were not just an insult to the young man in golden armor, but they did not dare to say much. They all left quickly, holding their anger.

There were more than a hundred people entering the city this time. Several soldiers led the way in front and led them to a square in the city.

The entire square is paved with gray-brown stone slabs, full of mottled marks left by the passage of time.

There is a stone platform in the middle of the square, and the figure of an old man quietly emerged.

The old man's figure was shrouded in a layer of light mist, but there was a bright light in the position of his eyes, sweeping across the faces of everyone present.

"I am the guide and the lord of this city. I only need to tell you a few rules. First of all, some of you will not be able to move forward. There will be a trial in a few days to test and select you."

The old man spoke slowly, his tone calm and without any arrogance or condescension.

"Secondly, during this period of time in the city, you are not allowed to attack each other, otherwise you will be expelled immediately. Well, each of you should recuperate and gather your strength."

To everyone's surprise, he only said two points, which were not clear, and he did not even tell the specific time of the trial.

"Senior City Lord, what should we do if someone takes the initiative to provoke a dispute?"

Someone asked immediately, and Chai Xin took a quick look and found that it was the young man in golden armor.

"It is self-defense. Regardless of the outcome, the one who strikes first will be expelled." After answering the question, the old man disappeared from the spot without waiting for others to continue asking questions.

Many people were filled with confusion, but there was nothing they could do. After all, this was someone else's territory, and whether their confusion could be resolved depended on the other party's willingness.

Anyone with a little bit of common sense would not express dissatisfaction with the city lord.

At some point, the city had regained its prosperity. All the vendors among the indigenous people appeared, and the streets were crowded with people, no longer avoiding them.

"Big steamed buns stuffed with black beef, one ounce of divine source for three, no cheating for children or the elderly!"

"Tang Haws, made from thousand-year-old red moon fruit, two taels of divine source per string. If it's not sweet, it's free!"

All kinds of noisy sounds were heard in his face, making Chai Xin feel a little dazed, as if he was in the capital of some country in the southern region.

Chai Xin found an inn, but the prices there were shockingly high, and it would cost half a pound of Shenyuan to stay there for a day.

This is because the resources here are scarce and all kinds of goods are hard to come by. Moreover, anyone who sets foot on the ancient road will have to eat and live in the city, so there is no need to worry about no one consuming even if the prices are high.

Besides, no one in the city dares to act recklessly, so even if someone is dissatisfied with the price, they can only keep it to themselves.

Chai Xin didn't care much about this. Although he gave a lot of resources to Yan Ruyu and Pang Bo and asked them to manage their power well, the amount he had left was far beyond what ordinary people could match.

After staying in the city for several days, Chai Xin looked around and gained a better understanding of the city and the ancient trial road.

On this day, he visited an ancient site in the city. It was said that a predecessor had attained enlightenment there, broke through the realm of the Great Sage, and left behind a trace of Taoism.

This gave him some small gains, and he felt that his chances of taking that step were greater, and he felt quite happy.

When walking towards the inn, suddenly there was a sound of void shaking, followed by several mythical birds and beasts rushing towards them.

There was a sudden commotion on the street, with pedestrians trying to get out of the way.

"A good dog doesn't block the road, get out of the way!"

Chai Xin was in a good mood and was about to give way to the other party, but he suddenly heard a familiar voice and stopped immediately.

When he looked around, the first thing he saw was a gorgeously colored firebird with a man sitting on it. It was the young man in golden armor who had disappeared for several days!
This guy got a new mount from somewhere and is showing off his power.

Beside him, there were three figures, each riding on a strange beast, with extremely powerful aura.

"Junior brother, is this the guy who killed Qing'er?"

The leader sat on a golden lion, dressed in a scarlet battle robe and a purple-gold crown on his head. When he spoke, his voice was majestic and carried a hint of holy power.

It was obvious that this person had already entered the realm of saints. "It turned out to be the legendary Three Heroes of Gou Chen. I heard that he followed that person and had already entered the 30th city. Why did he return to the first city?"

Someone recognized the identities of the three riders and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

The Three Heroes of Gou Chen are three outstanding geniuses from the ancient Gou Chen star field. It is said that each of them has entered the saint realm, especially the eldest among them, who has been at the pinnacle of sainthood for many years.

These three people are from the same school and have worked together to explore the ancient trial road for decades, leaving a great reputation in the starry sky.

"Evil creature, return my little sister's life to me!"

Suddenly, the firebird that the young man in golden armor was sitting on let out a long cry, and flames burst out all over its body, and the temperature around it rose suddenly.

If there were no powerful magic array protecting the city, some buildings would have been set on fire immediately and the entire city would have turned into a boundless sea of ​​fire.

"Yanhong, calm down!"

The burly figure sitting astride the golden lion shouted softly, and the Firebird stiffened instantly, its momentum suddenly weakened, and the temperature around it returned to normal.

But the commotion here has already attracted more people's attention.

"Big Brother, it's this kid, he even threatened to kill me!"

The young man in golden armor had a grim expression and stared at Chai Xin with gritted teeth.

The three heroes of Gou Chen actually came from the same school and practiced under the same master for many years, and they have a deep friendship with each other. However, the world does not know that they have a younger apprentice brother.

The junior fellow apprentice is the master's youngest son. Due to his young age, he has never joined the other three to fight on the ancient trial road.

It was not until today when my cultivation had reached a high level and I had already reached the bottleneck of the holy path that I received the approval of my master to come here.

This junior brother is naturally the young man in golden armor.

In fact, when they learned that their junior brother was going to embark on the ancient trial road, the Three Heroes of Gou Chen had already turned back to take care of their junior brother.

But I was delayed on the way and only arrived today.

"You do have some courage, but you have not yet entered the holy realm, so it is not worth mentioning."

Another young man spoke indifferently, riding a three-headed demon wolf and wearing a black battle robe.

"Boy, there's no need to look at us like that. If you really have the guts, why don't you just do it and let us brothers see it?"

The last person was riding a snow-white rhinoceros, with his equally pure white battle robe fluttering gently, making him look extremely detached and otherworldly. When he spoke, his voice was like a spring breeze, as if he was talking to a friend.

"idiot."

Chai Xin just looked indifferent and uttered two words softly.

The tricks of these guys were not very clever, just the same as those of the young man in golden armor that day. They were provoking him with words, trying to force him to take action and then kill him according to the city rules.

Although these three people are quite powerful, Chai Xin has killed more than ten top saints before, so why would he be afraid of them?
The reason why he didn't take action was simply because he was concerned about the city rules.

It is definitely not a wise move to violate the city regulations and offend the guide as soon as you set foot on the ancient trial road.

Many people around knew the Three Heroes of Gou Chen, and quite a few remembered Chai Xin, but they were obviously more afraid of the former.

After all, he is an old prodigy who has been famous for many years. He has experienced countless battles on the ancient road, and his hands are stained with the blood of countless geniuses.

Their fame was earned through fighting with swords and guns.

In comparison, although Chai Xin has shown some skills, he is, after all, just a young man who has just started out.

"Who is this young man? He actually dares to confront the Three Heroes of Gou Chen. He is so courageous!"

“I’ve never heard of his name, but he did take action in front of me the day before yesterday. He is indeed a figure, but he has not yet entered the realm of a saint.”

"A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, but unfortunately the outcome may not be what you want."

Everyone was surprised to see that Chai Xin's attitude was so tough and he was not afraid at all when facing the Three Heroes of Gou Chen.

But they are not optimistic about Chai Xin. There are too many proud geniuses, but their endings are often not good.

"Haha, if you are scared, then so be it. Why are you pretending to be so stupid? If you don't dare to attack, why don't you get out of the way? A good dog doesn't block the road!"

The young man in golden armor narrowed his eyes and sneered. Now that he had the support of his three brothers, he could finally hold his head high and get back all the face he had lost in front of Chai Xin a few days ago.

Once Chai Xin couldn't stand the provocation and dared to attack him, even if his brothers didn't kill him, the city guards would definitely be dispatched.

"You pig-dog-like thing, I don't want to waste time talking to you, but you keep barking in front of me, it's really annoying! If you have the guts, leave the city immediately and kill the four of you like dogs!"

Chai Xin's face gradually turned colder, and his words were like sharp knives, without any mercy at all, slashing fiercely on the faces of the Three Heroes of Gou Chen and the young man in golden armor.

The onlookers were all shocked. Chai Xin was alone, stepping onto the ancient trial road for the first time. Facing the powerful three heroes of Gou Chen, he was still so aggressive and conceited to the extreme.

Any one of the Three Heroes of Gou Chen could defeat a group of newcomers who had just embarked on the ancient path, and they had killed countless saint-level geniuses.

He made his way to the seventeenth city of the human race and never lost a single battle.

If it weren't for the person who was recognized as having the potential to become an emperor who took them under his wing, they would probably continue to be invincible.

"Big Brother, since this kid wants to die, why don't you help him?"

The young man in golden armor has been the apple of everyone's eye since he was young. He is the only one who scolds others. Has anyone ever dared to scold him?
He couldn't stand Chai Xin's attitude at all and wanted to beat him up immediately. He persuaded his three senior brothers to go out of the city with Chai Xin and kill him.

"No! If you want to enter the city again after leaving it, you will have to wait at least half a year before you can enter again. If you are unlucky, it is possible that it will take three to five years."

The red-robed young man immediately refused without any questioning. He didn't seem to take Chai Xin's words to heart, and there was even a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Junior brother, you need to change your temper. How can you lose the big picture for the small? Young man, cherish your time. You can still live for another three days."

Although the young man in golden armor was arrogant, he did not dare to go against the wishes of his senior brother. After calming down a little, he felt that waiting for another three days would be much more cost-effective than waiting for half a year.

He suddenly smiled and nodded, saying, "Big Brother is right. I was too careless. This man is just a stepping stone on my way forward. His fate has long been determined. There is really no need to rush, and I should not lose the big picture for the small."

"Well, it's good that you figured that out."

The red-robed young man nodded with satisfaction, and while speaking he completely ignored Chai Xin, as if the other party was already a dead man.

"To describe cowardice in such a refreshing and refined way is truly a rare gem in the world! If you don't dare to fight, then get out of here. A good dog doesn't stand in the way!"

Chai Xin stood with his hands behind his back and repeated the words of the young man in golden armor exactly as they were spoken.
